LIFE oP HENRY WARD BKRcHER, the eKni-
nent pulpit and platform orator by
Joseph Howard. Jr. Illustrated. Pms-
.delphia: Hubbard Brothers.
Mr.. Howard was the lifelong friend
and ardent admirer of the great
preacher, and being intimate with Mr..
Beecher. and socially and familiar with
his work. the author was personally
acquainted with much in the life of the
pastor here recorded. Mr.. Towards
career as one of the foremost journalists
OIL the time has also admirably quail
he'd him to write an entertaining bi
osraphy. In this instance the under
taking has been labor of love, as one
readily observes as he peruses the pages
OF the book. Yet the author has kept
within the bounds of accuracy while
making himself interesting. A charm
ing feature OF the biography is the
BeecheIism" which runs through it,
IN the many little anecdotes and remin.
lScences and the preachers numerous
parsonal letters, some If which have been
before been published. The work is as
timely, too, as it is accurate aud inter-
esting. Popular interest in the charac-
ter and deeds of the great orator has
had little time to abate in the few wes ks
that have passed since his body was
carried from Plymouth Church, buried
under pail of roses. But Mr.. Howard
is speedy workman as well as a skilled
one, and his many sources of private in
formation, together with his own in
Vulnerable memories of the man whose
life he has pictured, fitted him for the
thoroughly and speedy accom-
plishment of a task which a
less fortunate and less gifted man
would have found beyond his power.
The book carries Mr.. Beecher's eventful
life from childhood down to the painful
deathbed scene in Brooklyn last March,
aud the great demonstration of sorrow
that came spontaneously from his city,
his nation and the world. The publish
ers have done their share, having pre-
sented handsome volume, profusely
illustrated The frontispiece is hand
some Steel plate portrait taken from q
photograph, the last prior to Mr..
Beecher's death.
